Why do you guys say if you can afford that car you can pay someone to clean your wheels?
I'm not saying that the 350Z is any kind of super car. I just mean that it's way out of my price range. (Don't forget, I'm a single dad that lost everything from a divorce and all I have is my Civic.)

well LEV, a civic is around 20 grand,(being nice) and that thing is probaly around 55 grand, and would **** all over a civic, that's why it's 'special' to me

another suggestion guys is.... they could be custom made wheels? NOT UH! OMG OMG, just a thought...

you can get a turbo 350z for 55k...a friend of mine just got one, ran him around 26...

i went to the nissan webpage, and "built nmy Z", and it cost me about 35k...but i picked just about every option, including the factory exhaust and suspension upgrades...on teh track model.

for a 350 the track package is the only way to go, but for the money I think there are better choices


See below

I personally think they look pretty sweet! But yes..it would be a pain in the butt to keep em clean.
But in general..thumbs up! [sm=smiley20.gif]

I defintiely like the wheels, but I too wonder about the brake cooling factor. . . And no, i don't know makes them, I found them on my local forum and posted 'em here.
